Our Congrove ranking jumped to 74 this week. We're now 15 points ahead of TCU and 8 ahead of UTSA.

actually Cosgrove's own Power Rankings ("defined as the strength of the team") has these teams ranked as follows:

TCU 71.51
UTSA 64.26
SMU 62.66
Texas St. 57.11

Click on "Power" at top. The reason I know your ranking is a bunch of [deleted]-is because I saw TCU beat the crap out of SMU and I know SMU's victories have come over schools that have collectively only beaten Arkansas St and Army.

Congrove takes into consideration Power and W-L record to derive its rankings.

Ponyboy you ought to suggest that at the next SMU Cheerleading Camp. Maybe TCU will agree to modify the score of next year's game to reflect factors other than just the points on the scoreboard.

Cut the personal crap unless you'd like to discuss in person. You have a good point and have made me go back reassess Congrove as a ranking system. I don't know where they get their power rankings and the fact that we're ranked ahead of TCU in the overall rankings does seem laughable.

Hmmm... what the hell are you talking about-didn't you see the SMU/TCU game? How about comparing SMU/Tech game with TCU/Tech game or SMU/A&M with TCU/LSU game. Yet Ponyboy and his new adopted son think SMU should be ranked higher than TCU

holy cow you are touchy

people have been pointing out for a while now that your faith in Congrove is a little misguided. ( as it would be with ANY computer ranking)
